OnePlus 12R Packs Premium Features at $500 Price Point
-
The OnePlus 12R is a $500 phone with last year's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, making it very fast and powerful for the price.
-
It has a big, bright 6.78-inch 120Hz LTPO display that looks great and saves battery life.
-
The camera takes nice photos in good light, especially at 1x and 2x zoom, but struggles in low light and at higher zoom levels.
-
Build quality is excellent with an aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass panels, though lack of wireless charging and IP67 rating are downsides.
-
Software is clean Android 14 with OxygenOS 14 and promises of 3 years of updates, making it a good value rival to Pixel and Galaxy phones.
